Explosive King Returns to His Throne

This would not only eliminate those disobedient soul masters from outside the clan, but also serve as a test for Unrivaled Thief.

Unrivaled Thief was no benevolent soul. Whoever dared break the rules, he dared kill.

So this Soul Emperor before him had been sold out without even realizing it.

He ignored the corpse and said calmly to the air, "Fourth, it's your turn."

Before his words had even faded, the headless corpse burst into flames and was reduced to ash in the blink of an eye.

Not long after, in the main hall of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, Ning Fengzhi received news of that Soul Emperor's death.

"Worthy of being someone who made me suffer a loss. He acts decisively. It seems the benefits of cooperating with him far outweigh the drawbacks."

With that, he rose and headed for the hall entrance, preparing to leave for Heaven Dou City.

Meanwhile, eager to improve his strength, Tang San once again headed to the Star Dou Great Forest, planning to add a Soul Ring to his second martial soul.

However, this time, the one accompanying them was Flender.

"Dean Flender, I need a soul beast with both strength and speed. Please help me find one."

Faced with Tang San's request, Flender snorted coldly.

"Tang San, I'm not your nanny. Find whatever soul beast you want yourself. I only agreed to help you hunt a soul beast to fulfill the bet between Xiao Gang and me."

Tang San's gaze turned icy at those words, killing intent surging in the depths of his eyes.

Seeing that she had a chance to be useful, Xiao Wu proudly flicked her scorpion braid and stepped forward to pat Tang San on the shoulder.

"Don't worry, Xiao San. If he won't help you find one, I will!"

"Xiao Wu, you're still the best to me."

Tang San's expression eased slightly, and he temporarily restrained his killing intent toward Flender.

Xiao Wu proudly flicked her scorpion braid and puffed out her chest.

"Of course! You're my brother. If I'm not good to you, who will be?"

As she spoke, she shot Flender a provocative glance.

Her eyes clearly said: Even if you don't help, Xiao San will still grow stronger.

Moreover, after learning Tang San's secret of possessing Twin Martial Souls yesterday, she had been so excited that she could not sleep all night.

After all, she bore a blood feud and could only possibly achieve revenge by relying on someone else.

And wasn't a genius like Tang San exactly the person she wanted to cling to?

Of course, perhaps she had now been blinded by love and had long forgotten her blood feud.

Walking at the front of the group, Flender snorted coldly and dismissed Xiao Wu's provocative gaze with disdain.

In his view, could a mere Soul Elder like Xiao Wu possibly know the Star Dou Great Forest better than him, a Soul Saint?

But he would never have imagined that Xiao Wu was a Ten Thousand Year Soul Beast Transformation from the Star Dou Great Forest.

She had some understanding of the soul beasts throughout the Star Dou Great Forest.

After all, after transforming from a Ten Thousand Year Soul Beast, she had been weak, as fragile as a human child.

If she had not understood the soul beasts in every part of the forest, she might not even have been able to leave the Star Dou Great Forest safely and enter the human world.

At the rear of the group, Yu Xiaogang saw Flender's attitude and immediately flew into a rage.

"Flender, you call yourself a powerful Soul Saint, yet you're so narrow-minded! Could it be that you can't stand seeing Xiao San improve, which is why you keep making things difficult for him?"

Flender coldly swept his gaze over this "close friend" who had pushed him into a pit of fire, his eyes behind the lenses flashing with chill.

If Yu Xiaogang had not recommended Tang San to Shrek Academy, how would he have fallen to this state?

Yesterday, when Ning Fengzhi and Bone Douluo arrived, he had made things difficult for Ning Rongrong because of Tang Hao.

Afraid that Ning Fengzhi would make trouble for him over it, he had hidden away yesterday and did not even dare fart.

He feared that if his fart was too loud, he would lose his life!

As for Yu Xiaogang, this so-called close friend, the fact that Flender had not attacked him already counted as mercy.

Seeing Flender ignore him, Yu Xiaogang felt slighted.

After all, he was the wisdom corner of the Golden Iron Triangle, the true brain of the team.

Just as he was about to flare up, Xiao Wu spoke.

"Xiao San, head southwest. That's where ape-type soul beasts gather. If we're lucky, we might even encounter a thousand-year Titan Giant Ape!"

As the sworn elder sister of Er Ming, the Titan Giant Ape, she naturally knew where the Titan Giant Ape clan lived.

As one of the overlords of the Star Dou Great Forest, Er Ming had no trouble protecting his own kind.

"Titan Giant Ape?!" When Tang San heard of the Titan Giant Ape soul beast, his eyes immediately shone brilliantly.

"Xiao Wu, how do you know that? If we can really encounter a thousand-year Titan Giant Ape, that would be perfect!"

He had witnessed the might of a hundred-thousand-year Titan Giant Ape. Whether in strength or speed, it stood at the very peak.

Furthermore, a thousand-year Titan Giant Ape possessed combat power comparable to an ordinary ten-thousand-year soul beast.

The soul skill it granted would surely be incredibly powerful as well!

Xiao Wu's expression stiffened at his words. Then she lightly spun around and gave the excuse she had prepared long ago.

"I saw it by accident when I was captured by the Titan Giant Ape last time! Ah, stop asking so many questions. If we don't hurry, we might miss our chance!"

Although Er Ming, the Titan Giant Ape, was her younger brother, that did not mean the other Titan Giant Apes were.

Besides, Xiao Wu was still angry at Er Ming for leaving without saying goodbye last time.

She thought to herself, That stinking Er Ming failed to protect me when I condensed my Soul Ring last time, so I'll let Xiao San take one of your clansmen as a Soul Ring. Consider it a lesson for you! Besides, being Xiao San's Soul Ring is a blessing for your clansman!

Tang San nodded firmly, completely believing Xiao Wu's words.

Without hesitation, he sprinted southwest, excitement gleaming in his eyes.

Before leaving, Yu Xiaogang cast Flender a meaningful glance. That triumphant look seemed to say:

Even heaven is helping Xiao San grow stronger. No matter how much you, Flender, try to stop him, nothing will change!

Though unwilling, Flender had promised to assist with the soul hunt and naturally would not go back on his word.

Besides, he believed that even if he stood by and did nothing, Tang Hao in the shadows would surely lend a hand.

"Forget it. Let nature take its course." Flender sighed.

Although he no longer acknowledged himself as Tang San's slave, he had no desire to provoke Tang Hao and rush toward his death.

With that in mind, he could only quicken his pace and follow Tang San's group.

Meanwhile, at the heart of the Star Dou Great Forest.

A Titan Giant Ape with ten thousand years of cultivation was trembling as it lay prostrate beside the Lake of Life, obedient as a small child.

Although it could rival ordinary soul beasts with several tens of thousands of years of cultivation, it was now facing another overlord of the Star Dou Great Forest.

At the center of the lake, the hundred-zhang-long Sky Azure Bull Python held its head high, its majestic gaze blazing.

"Speak!" The Sky Azure Bull Python's voice boomed like thunder. "Why has your king disappeared?!"

Though the ten-thousand-year Titan Giant Ape could not speak human language, it had already gained intelligence.

Faced with the Sky Azure Bull Python's questioning, it shook its head repeatedly in terror, indicating that it knew nothing.

After all, Er Ming's actions had never required him to report anything to them.

Naturally dissatisfied with that answer, the Sky Azure Bull Python questioned it again. "Then did any fierce battle occur in the Star Dou Great Forest that day?!"

Because it had been cultivating at the bottom of the Lake of Life that day, it knew nothing of what had happened outside.

At those words, the ten-thousand-year Titan Giant Ape seemed to remember something and began gesturing wildly.

Using body language, it showed the Sky Azure Bull Python everything it had seen and heard about the battle that had occurred in the outer forest that day.

After watching that entire display, the Sky Azure Bull Python understood that Er Ming, the Titan Giant Ape, had truly been hunted and killed by humans.

A savage light burst from its eyes, and its aura surged violently. In an instant, the Lake of Life began to boil.

Boom!

The next moment, a hundred-zhang wave soared into the sky, pouncing in every direction like an enraged beast and blotting out the heavens.

The towering ancient trees around it, each requiring several people to encircle, crackled explosively beneath the waves' impact and shattered across the ground.

The ten-thousand-year Titan Giant Ape curled up where it was, trembling in fear.

Even as the massive waves battered its body, it did not dare make the slightest movement.

The Sky Azure Bull Python threw back its head and roared, its voice shaking the skies. "Humans! You dared lay hands on Er Ming! This hatred cannot be borne under the same heaven!"

Boundless fury ignited in its golden vertical pupils. "All of your kind, heed my command. From this day onward, kill without mercy every human who enters the Star Dou Great Forest!"

Only now did it realize that it had been far too merciful toward humans.

Even when facing a newly advanced Titled Douluo, it had spared him out of consideration for the difficulty of cultivation.

Yet it had never expected such tolerance to bring about such consequences.

Humans had dared turn their butcher's blades upon its closest brother. They simply did not take it seriously.

The ten-thousand-year Titan Giant Ape felt as though it had been granted a pardon. After nodding frantically, it fled desperately toward the edge of the forest.

Behind it, the Sky Azure Bull Python let out another earth-shaking roar.

"Humans, prepare to endure my wrath! Since you do not know the meaning of death, then let your blood serve as an offering to Er Ming!"

At the outskirts of the Star Dou Great Forest, Tang San's group was still immersed in the joy of their imminent soul hunt.

"If I can hunt a thousand-year Titan Giant Ape as the Soul Ring for my second martial soul, I'll definitely gain a powerful soul skill! When that time comes, those people from Spirit Hall, including the Holy Son, will surely become my stepping stones!"

Tang San clenched his fists, excitement glittering in his eyes.

"Er Ming, don't blame me. Xiao San is my brother, after all. Letting one of your clansmen devote itself to Xiao San means I'll forgive you for leaving without saying goodbye that day."

As Xiao Wu skipped along, she silently muttered to herself. From time to time, she pointed deeper into the dense forest and guided the group onward.

Yu Xiaogang's eyes shone with barely concealed excitement, and even his breathing quickened unconsciously.

As long as Xiao San can successfully absorb a Soul Ring with the Clear Sky Hammer! he muttered inwardly, his fingers trembling without his notice. I'll be able to prove to the entire soul master world that I have cracked the cultivation method for Twin Martial Souls!

Everyone was immersed in their own beautiful fantasies, unaware that catastrophe was already upon them.

At this moment, the Great Soul Arena in Suotuo City also welcomed fresh blood because of Unrivaled Thief.

The Heaven Dou Royal Fighting Team!

Because of Dugu Yan, the Imperial Dou Team had arrived in Suotuo City ahead of schedule.

In a VIP room of the Great Soul Arena, a young man with short dark-blue hair stood by the railing.

His long fingers gripped the railing tightly, his knuckles turning faintly white from the force.

"Yan'er!" Gazing at the agile purple figure on the arena stage, a fierce glint flashed through Yu Tianheng's eyes. "You are my woman, and you can only be my woman. Dugu Bo, just wait and see. I'll prove that I'm stronger than the person you keep talking about!"

Meanwhile, outside Suotuo City.

"Achoo!" Unrivaled Thief suddenly sneezed, his body swaying as he narrowly avoided Rebel Son's sneak attack.

He rubbed his nose, baffled. "Strange. Which little bastard is talking shit about me behind my back?!"

Chapter 61: Explosive King True Body Experience Card

Outside Suotuo City, the bonfire before the Wooden Cabin crackled.

Unrivaled Thief absentmindedly poked at the fire while everyone else had already entered the Wooden Cabin to soak in medicinal liquid.

His hand paused as he added another piece of firewood, and the corners of his mouth lifted slightly. "Old Poison, come out. That little concealment trick of yours can't fool me."

"Ha ha ha!" A jade-green figure descended from the sky as Dugu Bo stroked his beard and laughed heartily.
